A Ray of Hope

In this academic environment of political violence against conservatives, there is this piece of potential justice:

BERKELEY — A former Diablo Valley College professor was arrested Wednesday in connection with the use of a bike lock in the beating of three people during a rally for President Donald Trump last month, police said Thursday.

Eric Clanton remained in custody in lieu of $200,000 bail at Berkeley Jail on Thursday and is scheduled to be arraigned at 9 a.m. Friday at Oakland’s Wiley W. Manuel Courthouse. He was arrested on three counts of suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon that isn’t a firearm and assault causing great bodily injury.

We'll see if Soros bails him out. I doubt that a prof has $200k lying around to cover bail. Or he might be granted a pardon by Governor Bubbles Brown.
